Neal Morse and Curved Air. Getting very very interesting. Would like to know which days though.

Yes, that was the big complaint from last year - trying to find out who was playing on which day. They don't seem to have taken much notice of the feedback form they send round then!

Yes you're right. The last time I saw the poster it wasn't split into days. Good stuff, but I still can't go. Cry

So what are the chances of Neal Morse singing for Spock's Beard then?

Well, there is a chance that Nick isn't coming to London, so... you never know.

I saw that last night while I read the mag. I wish that JT would tour the USA again.

what are the chances Portnoy is touring with Morse, and may wind up filling the drum spot for SB too? (not to mention certain ex-band mates over there)

Seems like an interesting line-up so far, but I'm very wary about spending £100+ of my limited budget unless another prog giant such as IQ turns up. Being a relatively new progger of three or four years experience, I don't recognise and enjoy bands such as Pallas, and the metal aspect of Dream Theater doesn't grab my attention. Unless I am swayed by a band whom I very much love, I am tempted to save my money and just enjoy myself at the Newcastle Rush gig in May and the IQ gig in Bury.

My experience of modern festivals is expensive drinks and diabolical food prices, which to me seems like I'm better off seeing the prog acts at their own shows and getting a more enjoyable experience from them overall.

Just my opinion of course, influenced by budget restraints; If I was a rich man I'd see high voltage and stay in the Hilton for the weekend Cool

Going to trial with a lawyer who considers your whole lifestyle a crime-in-progress is not a happy prospect.

The Sunday line up does like quite appealing though. Was a wonderfull atmosphere last year and its a chance (perhaps last chance) to see some prog giants.
btw the food prices were okay last year and there was plenty of choice. I avoided the beer altogether as you can become quite de -hydrated when its warm (as it was on that occasion)
